Fadeout
Prompts day 22: Story to include the phrase, "Where's my coffee?"
“Where's my coffee?”
His thin, piping voice had a slight wheeze to it. The nurse brought him a glass of warm water and his morning pills.
“You can't drink coffee anymore, remember? It's too acidic for you. Time for your meds, honey.”
“I don't take any meds. I want my coffee.”
“You need your morning meds. I can make you some tea.”
“Not tea, coffee! Who are you? Why are you here?”
He was getting agitated. She sighed and squeezed his shoulder soothingly.
“I'm your daughter. I'm here to help you.”
Being her father's nurse meant watching him fading away.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not using it in a fruit salad. So also, knowledge is knowing that a machine can string words and phrases into stories and poems; wisdom is understanding that those stories and poems are meaningless because they cannot connect two minds and two souls. You're an excellent writer, and I'm pleased that you see no need to falsify talent!](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/badges/general-Wisdom.gif)
